Terrie Valentine, MAE, LMHC, EAGALA, TF-CBT Advanced Certification
When Terrie was young and she needed a friend, or to chill, she would go to the barn and spend time with her horse Charlie. She told Charlie everything.
In high school, she knew she wanted to be someone who kids wanted to talk to, just like she talked to Charlie.
Terrie became a Middle School Counselor and later joined forces with Annette to begin Reins and Rainbows.
“Horses challenge me to be honest about how I feel and challenge me to be all the things I want for my clients” Terrie
